Update 2: 2020 TBR Reading Challenge

Hey everyone!

For today’s post, I am updating you all on my progress with the 2020 TBR Reading Challenge, which was created by the lovely Mina @ Stacked.

Here’s a quick recap for anyone who doesn’t know about the challenge…

The Rules:

Pick a novel for each of the 22 TBR prompts. If that’s too much for you, it’s OK to go for less. However…
Those who finish all 22 prompts and post their reviews on their blogs/vlogs have a chance to win a book of their choice as a reward! (International, as long as Book Depository ships to your country)
You can’t start reading those books before January 1st!
Follow the creators Twitter account as she will create a blog hopping sheet (when the challenge begins) where you can leave your links. Also, to make it easier for her to keep up, please use #2020TBRReadingChallenge tag.
Thank the person that tagged you

Progress:

Okay, so the last time I did an update for this challenge (Update 1) was back in March. I was doing absolutely awfully, and had only read one book, and technically I didn’t even read it, because I DNF’ed it at around 55%.

Since then, I have managed to tick a few more off the list! I have had a lot of arcs/requests/blog tours to focus on, but I’ve been trying to fit books from my list in whenever I can.

From my list, I have now read:

Searching For Edgar’s Five Dancers by Efren O’Brien (This is the book I DNF’ed) – REVIEW
Fifty Fifty by Steve Cavanagh – REVIEW
Lord of the Flies – Review to come
Domain by James Herbert – REVIEW
Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi – Review to come

As you can see, I still have a lot more to get through, but I don’t have many arcs/requests to get through, and then I can focus on this a bit more.

Are you taking part in any reading challenges this year?
Have you read any of the books I have chosen?
